The Face of Britain: The Nation Through Its Portraits [Audiobook]

Churchill and his painter locked in a struggle of stares and glares; Gainsborough watching his daughters run after a butterfly; a naked John Lennon five hours before his death. Simon Schama has written a tour de force about British portraits over the centuries in which the image-maker, the subject and everyone else looking on are brought unforgettably to life.

Mesmerising in its extraordinary storytelling, The Face of Britain will change the way we see our past - and ourselves.
